It also depends on the textproc/jade port via jade (both are executables). However, jade includes its own sgmlnorm binary, which then overwrites the one belonging to the sp port. Now, suppose the sp port is upgraded, to automate the upgrade, I would pkg_delete docproj and sp and then remake docproj. However, since jade already has an sgmlnorm installed, making the docproj port fails to install sp. However, the documentation (such as the Handbook, etc.) seems to build fine without the sp port installed so the proper fix may be to just take it out if it is no longer necessary. >How-To-Repeat: I think I covered that above. :) >Fix: According to textproc/jade/pkg/DESCR: Note: This port is a superset of the sp port. If you have sp installed, it is recommended that you remove it before installing jade. So, perhaps the proper fix is to take sp out of the dependecies list? >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
